Major Problems Transmissions 2020s and 2021s 2022s
We bought a 2021 KIA Soul EX August 2021. We thought we had a great little car with all the bells and whistles. When we did our research back in August 2020 the 2019 KIA Soul was the latest report from Consumer Reports. It got very high marks mostly excellent in all areas. We figured the 2020s and 2021s would be the same. We started reading about major problems for the KIA Soul in 2021. The 2020s and 2021s have a major transmission problem. I was told by a KIA Service manager that there would be a recall on the transmission in the future for the Souls. KIA issued TSB SC199_ownr_SK3 on and TSB SC199_DP on the power train. SC 199 states notification to dealer principals advising them of a voluntary emissions service campaign to improve the transmission control module(tcm)logic and, if necessary, replace the intelligent transmission. We have not had any problems with our KIA yet. Kia has a great warranty 10 years or 100,000 miles on the power train. The dealers are not very helpful in resolving the problem. It can take up to 2 to 3 months to get a new replacement. We have read that some owners had to replace more than one. We will take a proactive step and trade our KIA in before we have any problems

problems with my 2 week old Soul
I've only had my soul two weeks now and like it. However, this morning on my way to work I noticed pulsations or lurching which started out minor and slowly got worse. As i neared my exit, the car suddenly revved up to over 3,000 rpm's and the transmission was shifting wildly. I made it to the parking garage to get the train......barely. The car only has 1,200 miles on it! Really? Is this a view of more to come? When I got out of the car I could smell either transmission or brake fluid not sure which, will be contacting the dealer soon!

Best 'bang for the buck' & unmatched versatility
This is my third Kia Soul and they keep getting better every time. Lots of room inside and huge cargo area with rear seats down. Surprisingly peppy 2 liter engine and transmission ( my first automatic ). Great in the N.J. snows with winter tires. No need for AWD ( around here anyway ). Great deals well below MSRP are available. The S model has most of the 'nanny' electronic safety features - very good to have. Overall, the best you can buy for under $ 20 K.
